About The Role
When dementia touches someone’s life, it can change things in ways that feel overwhelming, for the person themselves and for those around them. In those moments, having someone who listens, understands and simply shows up can make all the difference.
This role is about being that person.
If you’re someone who leads with kindness, who takes the time to really hear people, and who believes everyone deserves to feel supported, included and valued, this could be a truly meaningful next step for you.
We’re excited to offer an opportunity to work alongside the Local Service Manager to help grow and strengthen supportive networks across Havering, so that no one affected by dementia has to face things alone.
Location: Across Havering Borough, with some homeworking
As a Dementia Adviser, you’ll become a familiar, trusted face in the community. You’ll build genuine connections with people, taking the time to understand their experiences, their worries and what matters most to them.
Your days will be varied and people focused. You might be helping to create warm, welcoming group sessions where people can share stories, build friendships and feel a sense of belonging. You might be sitting with someone in their home, offering reassurance and practical support in a space where they feel most comfortable. You’ll also connect with people over the phone and through local networks, making sure support is always within reach.
At the heart of everything you do is compassion, respect and a belief in meeting people where they are. You’ll also keep thoughtful and accurate records of your work, helping to ensure that every person’s journey is understood and supported with care and continuity.
Every conversation, every visit and every small moment of connection matters here.
What you’ll bring

- The ability to travel across the Havering Borough area
- An understanding of health and social care, or a willingness to learn, and an appreciation of how support needs can shape people’s lives
- Strong organisational and time management skills
- A warm and adaptable communication style, with the ability to connect with people from all backgrounds and experiences
- A genuine commitment to equity, diversity and belonging, and a desire to help create spaces where everyone feels welcome
- Confidence using IT systems, including databases and online tools such as Teams or Zoom

This is more than a role. It’s a chance to walk alongside people, to offer reassurance during uncertain times, and to help create moments of connection, confidence and hope.

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve.

We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart.

Context

This is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in a pioneering programme that could reshape how kinship families are supported across England.

Kinship is undertaking a pilot Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) of Kinship Connected, a Kinship Navigator programme designed to provide intensive, specialist support to kinship carers and help them navigate complex systems.

This is a multi-partner programme involving funders, independent evaluators, participating local authorities, internal delivery teams and kinship carers with lived experience.

Kinship Navigators are at the heart of delivery. You will work directly with kinship carers in the community and in their homes, providing intensive 1-to-1 support and facilitating local support groups, while working closely with local authority partners and other services.

Because the programme forms part of a pilot RCT, maintaining high-quality case records and accurate data collection is critical. Your work will contribute directly to the evidence base about what works for kinship families.

Each Navigator will support around 40 kinship carers over the delivery year, holding a caseload of approximately 20 families at any one time.

You will be part of a wider delivery team including the Programmes Manager, Mobilisation and Delivery Project Manager, research colleagues and other Kinship teams, working together to ensure the programme is delivered ethically, consistently and to a high standard

About the role:

The Kinship Navigator provides intensive, time-limited support to kinship carers through the Kinship Connected programme, a structured six-month intervention designed to help kinship families stabilise placements and access the support they need.

Working directly with kinship carers, you will build trusting relationships while completing structured assessments, goal setting and reviews to help families strengthen support networks and navigate services such as children’s social care, education, health and community support.

This is a community-facing role, working directly with kinship carers in homes, community spaces and through co-location with local authority teams and partner organisations.

The role requires a combination of high-quality relational practice and disciplined case recording. As part of the pilot RCT, accurate documentation of activity, progress and outcomes is essential to ensure the programme can be evaluated and improved.

You will work closely with the Programmes Manager, delivery team, researchers and local authority partners to ensure the programme is delivered consistently, ethically and to a high standard, with a strong commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion in supporting kinship families from all backgrounds.

The key deadlines and information:
We have really short timescales for this role as this role is part of a research project so do apply early.
